How to furnish a care home
Selecting the right furniture for care homes is extremely important. Not only does it need to provide comfort to the residents, but it should also be durable, sturdy and provide longevity. Cost-effectiveness should also be taken into account because investing in furniture that will withstand heavy-duty use is extremely important.
So, what should you look for in your care home furniture?
Durable bed frames
When selecting beds for care homes, there are a few factors to concentrate on. Strong beds that will resist wear and tear are essential, allowing you the peace of mind that they will withstand heavy-duty use. It is also an advantage that you can select from a range of colours and styles to harmonise with the decor in your care home to achieve an attractive aesthetic too. Upgrading to premium steel mesh bases for your bed frames delivers extra assurance of sturdiness.
Comfortable and firm mattresses
Care home residents, whether they are elderly or require special assistance, can benefit from firm and comfortable mattresses. Firm mattresses offer a variety of health benefits. The longevity of the mattress is also important for care home beds too and extra firm, long-lasting mattresses will exceed this requirement.
Sturdy sofas and armchairs
Choosing a sofa that can hold up and stay strong during heavy-duty daily wear is essential in a care home. With not only residents but also visitors making regular use of your sofas and armchairs, it is imperative that you choose the right ones for your needs. A strong and aesthetically pleasing sofa will optimise your communal spaces. Sturdy and comfortable armchairs are also ideally suited for use in residents' bedrooms, allowing them to relax and unwind when they are alone in their rooms.
High-quality furniture that will last
Choosing high quality reinforced furniture that will ensure you don't need to constantly replace or repair items is a cost-effective way to maximise the longevity of the furniture in your care home. Beds, mattresses, sofas, armchairs and other care home furniture is an intrinsic part of the daily life of care home residents. Finding the right equilibrium between comfort and strength is very important. Choose a trusted and reliable supplier for your beds, mattresses and sofas to ensure that you are receiving the highest quality and the best value for money.
